Perception and Action
130 Attentive Vision
Learning Objectives
Know that attention can be deployed several ways.
Be able to define feature-based, location-based, and object-based attention.
Loads of psychophysical and electrophysiological experiments demonstrate three strategies:
- Feature-based attention: you can look for a particular feature anywhere.
– Ex. Look for something that is black, metal, and has a diamond design. - Spatial attention: you can look in a particular place for anything.
– Ex. Look at the top right of the photo. - Object-based attention: you can deploy attention along an object, even if it’s partially occluded.
– Ex. Look at the street lamps on the bridge in the photo.
